yeah, I knew I should change the belt. It's a nissan frontier with 135000 on the odo. I didn't hear any really loud crunchy sounds so maybe I got lucky? I doubt it. My luck has completely run out.
Here is a recap of my last two weeks. BAD Things. 1.. Wife left me. 2. 914 started running like shit. 3. Hit a deer in my pick up. 4. Lost my timing belt in the same pickup. 5. Had to pay a lawyer 1000....uh that was supposed to be my mortgage payment for that damned house that I don't even live in now. Anyway, anybody busted a timing belt on a nissan 3.3 v6? Did it cause extreme damage? I plan to try to turn the cams over by hand and if they turn ok, I think I'll buy a belt and try it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

I think everyone who's been through it can tell you that you're at the worst right now. But if you think about it you know it was bad, and a couple of years from now you'll be about as happy as a man could be. Most people end up thinking it was the best thing that could have happened them.
Now that Nissan on the other hand, that's a LOT of bent valves... |
